to what extent does this represent an increase in militarization of foreign policy? >> this is a very big question. question on is the drone approach in yemen and more broadly elsewhere, a reflection of a broader shift of foreign policy that shows a greater marltization? -- militarization. >> i think you're definitely on to something. there are things i can point to. using drone strikes, using air strikes is a way that the u.s. can effectively combat its enemies without putting american forces at risk and without sort of suffering the casualties that we've seen in iraq and afghanistan. and while i think that may be true long term i had great concerns about the potential blowback from those actions and what the casualty account will be. that is a difficult argument to make. we're still at the point where we haven't seen all of the repercussions that are taking place from these attacks. but i do think there will be unfortunately i think there will be repercussions. the other thing i would note is that i think obviously given the situation in libya and benghazi, there a
